The $3,000+ end of the performance e-scooter market is full of electric scooters that go over 50 miles an hour, vying for a top spot on the fastest electric scooter leaderboards. But if you search our database for a scooter that goes over 50 mph for less than $2,000, you’ll come up empty… until now.
Solar specs their new Solar P1 Pro for 50 mph and, guess what? It went a full 50 mph in our speed tests. That’s almost unheard-of.
Electric scooters nearly always come in at least a few mph short of manufacturer estimates, if only because of inaccurately calibrated speedometers.
But then again, most electric scooters aren’t packing 4Kw of continuous dual-motor power.
What’s more, the P1 Pro has dual hydraulic suspension, hydraulic disc brakes, huge 11″ tubeless tires and a massive 60V, 26 amp hour battery with energy-dense 21700-type cells.It’s the same battery as the EMOVE Cruiser S, and the P1 Pro covers almost as much ground as that range champion.
